So, I was wistfully browsing eBay, looking at the Hess and Barbie
scale GMCs, and it occurred to me that it might be fun to build a
papercraft GMC, something akin to this:

Might be a fun way to re-use Byron Songer's illustrations:

Has anyone done this before?

If someone can produce the artwork, I can cut it in cardstock,as I have 2 different die cutters.

GMC cutouts were produced by Frank Weiss od the GMC SS club more than
10-15 years ago.

I may still have some and if I can find one I'll scan it and send to
you and you can share it. Howz 'bout dat?

Frank,
If you have a high-resolution version of that, can you email it to me? I can
then make a pattern from it that can be die-cut. I will then make them available
AT COST from my web site.(Probably have to be like a 10-pack to make the
shipping worth it).
